I got the best of both worlds... 929 db bars, 03 gix 1k stock. The 929 is way more comfy!

Re: bars/clip ons

Do what you like man. There's going to be people on here saying to get clipons cause they don't like DB bars and vice versa. Db bars are more comfortable and they make endos little easier.

I just got the Woodcraft ones and flipped them over. Way more comfortable and more room for your legs when doing tank wheelies.
